China-sponsored cyber actor targeting critical US infrastructure -NSA

The U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) said on Wednesday that it has identified a Chinese state-sponsored cyber actor trying target networks across U.S. critical infrastructure.

The NSA said other countries in the Five Eyes intelligence-sharing alliance have also issued similar advisories.

In a separate statement, Canada's spy agency warned Canadians of a "significant threat from a state-sponsored cyber threat actor associated with" China.
